I’ve been the Minister of Health for about four months now, approaching five, and I’ve had this brought up to me several different times, and I personally have had the opportunity to sit down with residents in the Northwest Territories who have experienced cancer who have expressed the exact types of concerns that the Member is bringing up with me. We do have a cancer patient navigator position within Stanton. That position is intended to help individuals through the system. But I hear the Member and I know that we need to do a little bit more work there. We do have the Aboriginal health and community wellness division within the Department of Health and Social Services and they’ve been doing a number of things to promote regular assessment and regular visits with your

physician but also doing things like sharing circles to make sure that people who are experiencing cancer have the supports they need in the communities. But I do hear the Member. I do recognize that there are some challenges out there. I’m certainly interested in the Member’s input and we will continue to work to enhance this particular area.
